TV Series

[north down blue]

Watched the first episode of the jackal, seems ok so will stick with it. The diplomat on Netflix is very good

Really enjoying The Penguin at the moment. Colin Farrell is brilliant.

Few other series I've watched over recent months include Yellowstone (plus the origin series), Mindhunter, Shogun, Mayor of Kingstown, Territory, Behind Her Eyes, Billy The Kid, House of the Dragon, Rings of Power.

I'd put The Penguin right up there.

Some great shows there. Have you watched The diplomat on Netflix or Sweetpea on sky Atlantic, both very very good

Done first 5 episodes of Jackal……worth a watch 7.5/10

Enjoyed it also.

I haven't so thanks for the suggestions. Will check those out.

Game of thrones beats it for a poor ending

Dunno about that. It was acceptable enough for me.

Another shout for Until I kill you thought it was brilliant and what a brave woman in real life to go through all that.

Incredible story and incredible lady

Superbly acted too

Episode 1 of wolf hall - the mirror and the light. Totally utterly brilliant. It really captures the essence of Hillary Mantell’s superb novel. Writing production and acting as good as it gets. 10/10.

 

[Banshee]

Yes!! S5 of Yellowstone finally resumed.

It also showed episodes 2,3,4 and 5 mate that you need to catch up on, from Thursday it’s episode 6.

It's flawed by me but 'Silo' returns next week, for those that like the show.

Whilst not perfect and with some tentative and some brilliant moments of tying it all together, the overall ending of 'The Penguin' was superb!!

I'd love to know what others thought about the show as a whole.

Personally, I can't see how Farrell won't win best actor come awards season. He's as good in the show as he was in the film.

Going watch it now it's finished. I'll be watching it all I one go so it's like an epic film

Going to binge it at the weekend , not sure it will be the same without anne bolyn and henry but hoping it is good

The Yorkshire Ripper

Just finished The Long Shadow. Not too bad. Not much about the murders but more about the poor detective work.

Remember growing up in Yorkshire in the 70s. I was a young teenager. I had to go meet my sister's at the bus stop because they were scared to walk home alone in the dark.

 

[Man_City_Loyal]

True.....but hands down has the worst ending in the history of TV , nothing comes close to being so bad ;)

discussions over season 7 so we may be in luck ;-)

 

[Man_City_Loyal]

loving the new series of special ops:Lioness

just started the latest episode of Yellowstone on my lunch break

 

[fallowfield]

It's flawed by me but 'Silo' returns next week, for those that like the show.

Maybe something will happen in this series....

 

[Resurrection Joe...]

Going to binge it at the weekend , not sure it will be the same without anne bolyn and henry but hoping it is good

Im pretty sure Henry will go the distance second season...

Watched E1 of Jackal & will continue with it (though every time I’ve ever watched the film I’ve always been gutted by the ending, hoping he would succeed). This new series looks fabulous on the screen.

Looking forward to Silo S2 starting on Friday too.

Enjoyed the Irish series Black Water, and have started with the new Shetland also.

Would also recommend Those That Kill on BBC4. All four series have been excellent.

Watched first episode of Shetland...hopefully will be as good as previous series.
